Default vibrations from ek h22 when making right turns/curves

ok heres the prob, whenever i make right turns or take right curves ie freeway ramp, the car vibrates like crazy. also whenever i hit a bump in the road and the suspension compresses it vibrates. ive had this prob in the past but it went away magically by itself. it seems everytime i take out the tranny or whatever this comes back, also there is a loud squeeking noise that comes from the driver side, sumthin with the suspension, but this prob goes away by itself to. i jus dont want to wait three months for them to go away.


i am using hcp mounts with front crossbar. any help would be great.

your axle might be too long and your car might be to low. If you've got coilovers raise the car up an inch then try a right turn again. if the problem is still there, check the axle condition, and length. I had that same problem when i first drove my setup. Good luck man!

89 teg axles are the right ones to use!!!

im using 90-93 teg axles on both sides, with a accord female mid shaft. it bothers me becuz the problem went away before but it always comes back whenever i take out the tranny to change the clutch etc.. i raised the car already and still the same prob, im rollin on 17's also but when i had 15's had the same prob. any more info???

yeah i know EXACTLY what you mean... i changed the shaft and put a 88-89 teg and its fine... whats weird is the inner joints are the exact same (the cup is the same) so it wont pop out, the shaft is about 1/4 inch shorter.. and when you take the size of the cup your safe for axel travel...

my car was worse when lowered but still some bottoming out on the drivers side .. i would get some on the passenger side sometimes when doing a very harsh passenger side lean in but it was very minimal and im talking about a HARD dip..

so get yourself a 88-89 shaft and call it a day.. and no you cant get a shorter one...

trust me.. it will cure it

oh and its olding fine at some 9k+ shifting and squaking too

if you still need feedback. ask away but i doubt youll get a better asnwer

hahahahahahah
